My TPMS light came on last week. The cold weather and the fact that I haven't checked my tire pressure since August both played a role. I pumped them back up to 38/36 and all is good. I'm putting on winter tires in the next few weeks anyway. I'm gonna have to live with that pesky light all winter long.

Black Duct tape will hide it just fine.

Yea, my light is on all the time now. Doesn't bother me in the least. Just another little tiny light up there on the dash like the others.
